UK Bingo

UK bingo has many of the same games that North American bingo offers including cover all games. The difference between the North American and the UK bingo cover all game is that the UK bingo version is played as the third section of a regular game. North American bingo cover all games are generally played as one game, but can be found as a third section of another game.

75 ball bingo is played in both areas, but with different style cards. Both types of bingo require the numbers called to come from bingo balls that are called at random, creating the chance of bingo. This type of bingo is normally played on a 5 by 5 bingo card with a center square being marked as a free spot. This means that the spot automatically counts as being filled in. Bingo is called when the pattern required to win the game is completed on a face. This type of game is generally not played in UK, but can be found on many UK bingo sites. The most common form of UK bingo is the 90 ball bingo.

90 ball bingo games require a bingo card that has a 9 by 3 setup, with a total of 90 balls available. This is considered a standard game where a bingo card has 3 horizontal lines with 9 columns for each. Each line only has 5 numbers so there are a total of 15 numbers available on each face. The cards are set up much like North American bingo cards where the first column contains numbers between one and ten and the second column has numbers between 11 and 20. This popular game is generally played in 3 stages where the first stage requires one horizontal line across the card to be complete. The second stage of the game requires 2 horizontal lines to be complete while the third stage is a full house; this means that all the numbers on a face are marked off much like a North American cover all game.

Bingo is a very easy game to play when the rules are known. In order to call a bingo, you must call before the next number is called. So if the last number you need to complete your bingo is I 18, you must call bingo right after the number is marked. You cannot call bingo after the next number is called, as this bingo is considered null. There are times when a player will share a bingo with other players because they have a bingo at the same time. In these cases the prize if monetary, will be split evenly among the players. However if the prize is a single one, it will be awarded in most cases to either all the players or the first player to call bingo depending on the site. If playing online, auto daub is a feature available that will automatically daub numbers as they are called, on every card being played. This can be a great aid in having a bingo.
